The Marilyn K. Glick Women's Enrichment Series offers a chance for the community to meet and hear the inspiring first-person stories from women leaders who hold all types of positions: philanthropists, pioneers in the judiciary, business leaders, athletes, and activists. The theme for the 2022-23 series is Lifelong Learning.

To close out the series, Angela B. Freeman will discuss her journey as a lifelong learner in many aspects of her life. Angela is a Partner and Intellectual Property (IP)/Patent Attorney in the Indianapolis office of the law firm of Barnes & Thornburg LLP. Ms. Freeman is a member of the firm’s Intellectual Property Department and Life Sciences Practice Group. With a background of over 15 years as a “bench” biologist prior to her legal career, Ms. Freeman spent the majority of her scientific career as a genetic researcher and clinical scientist at Eli Lilly & Company (Lilly) with previous research experience at a Louisville, Kentucky area birth defects center. In 2021, Ms. Freeman was also named as the host of a new monthly podcast by the IBJ, called The Freedom Forum with Angela B. Freeman. This podcast explores the intersection of business, race, and gender in the Hoosier state by interviewing influential leaders and executives making real change and impact in the diversity, equity, and inclusion space.
